Free Music Notes for Tired Sounds of Stars of the Lid

Free Music Review: yawn
Hit: 2 Stars

I bought this CD because so many people gave rave reviews for it. I have an open mind to all kinds of music, but this stuff was just waaay too minimalistic for me. It seemed to drag on and on. I have enjoyed drone and ambient music but this is just too tedius for my tastes. I gave it to my son who is a big fan of bands like Sigur Ros and Godspeed You Black Emperor.

Tired Sounds of Stars of the Lid Poster

Put on Stars of the Lid's Tired Sounds of Stars of the Lid and bliss out. Unspeakably sublime, the latest effort of Brian McBride and Adam Wiltzie, who distance themselves from their hometown Austin, Texas, boogie rock scene, is a minimalist, parametric--and ambient--symphony with a faint rock sensibility that refuses to beg for attention. Tired Sounds is built from formal patterns with layers of melody, texture, atmosphere, and rhythm--but not in the way we normally know it and without the use of drums. Unidentifiable guitars, strings, keyboards, and horns, from soprano to bass in tone, are synthesized with occasional field recordings sounding like audio samples of our universe from the last century and the next galaxy. The work recalls impressionist classical music more than indie rock, and one might mathematically graph the patterns of the six suites that stretch across two CDs and six sides of vinyl with names like "Austin Texas Mental Hospital" and "Requiem for Dying Mothers." Transcendent yet subtle, Tired Sounds will require many listenings to fully grasp, remaining a fascinating puzzle to contemplate and enjoy. File under life-affirming ambient. --Jillian Steinberger
